defining render crop via script or plugin or tool i dont know about?

[super gnu]

ive got a scene where i need to render a few different crops of the same camera. during lookdev and testing i will need to swap between these crops regularly, and they must always match the previous ones. is there a way to save crop "presets" ?

You can use MaxScript to set a region by coordinates for each image. It should look something like this:

vfbControl #setregion 0 0 640 480

thanks for the reply, but i need "crop" not "region"

found a hacky solution:

rectangles aligned to camera, edited to match crops marked on highres backplate in viewport.. set to non-renderable, then use the crop "auto region selected" ... i can now swap between crops just by selecting the right rectangle. managed to get it pixel perfect first time so it works.. not ideal though.

Sorry, I've misread. Glad you've found a solution. Most likely there is a MaxScript command for the crop region as well as an alternative.
